Lyrics
Waiting (For Too Long)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Tell me that it's over.
Tell me that you don't feel the same as you used to, love.
Maybe I'll finally get through.
Well, search until you find her.
But never settle on a medium.
You're worth too much.
Why didn't I pay attention?
And the water was swallowing your neck, but I couldn't see it.
I guess robbery is what I get, believing in something for too long.
Travel in a letter,
keeping the motion of a note, to appreciate.
Forget about all the hurrying.
And give away desires.
Remember, everything you're needing has always been there.
You gotta keep your attention, love.
And the water was swallowing your neck, but I couldn't see it.
I guess robbery is what I get, believing in something for too long.
Now the waves are picking up, letting the undertow fold into us.
And then anchors getting heavier by now.
And the water was swallowing your neck, but I couldn't see it.
I guess robbery is what I get, believing in something for too long.
